About this programme
Siegen’s Master's in Electrical Engineering programme trains students with specific expertise in key areas of microelectronics design, communication systems and automation technology. In addition to in-depth knowledge, students also acquire soft skills including presentation, team work, management and leadership skills. They benefit from the close collaboration between electrical and computer engineering with a tight link to research projects conducted in both disciplines at our university. We conduct research in diverse areas including AI/machine learning, digital imaging, healthcare, automotive, industrial control, avionics and home automation, where Master's students get ample opportunities to participate. Electronics Design and Technology This specialisation trains students in the design of micro and nano electronics devices and circuits. VLSI integrated circuits and photonic systems have revolutionised our lives with low cost, yet powerful computing and sensing devices, in form of hand-held computers, mobiles as well as high-end AI systems. This course trains engineers in design, build and test of electronic components required for these developments. They gain diverse experience ranging from cleanrooms fabricating nanoscale electronic devices and designing Analogue and Digital IC in state-of-the-art software. Sensory systems, including digital camera technology and machine learning/AI systems, are key themes of research at Siegen, which is reflected in our teaching port
